Whether you are in charge of a large-scale data center or converting a traditional data center to a cloud, Clustercorp Rocks+ can help you reduce the time and money you spend choosing, installing, and managing your complete solution.

Leverage Rocks+ in Amazon EC2 to power massively scalable enterprise class data centers in the cloud. You pay by the hour only for what you use (see above link for details and pricing).

    Choose - Clustercorp Rocks+ helps simplify the selection and acquisition of all the software components you need to build a complete cluster or cloud software stack. In the past, you might have purchased an operating system, system monitoring application, load manager, and other components from separate vendors. Now you can select Clustercorp Rocks+Rolls (prepackaged software components) to get all the software you need from a single source. By choosing your complete software stack through Clustercorp, you can be assured that all of the components will work together seamlessly.

    Deploy - Clustercorp Rocks+ also provides an automated software installation process to accelerate your time to solution. Simply check boxes to select the software you need to install; Rocks+ compiles those packages into a holistic distribution and automates the installation of the head node. Once that installation is complete, just network-boot (PXE-boot) the compute or cloud nodes for automatic provisioning, and you are ready to work.

    Manage - Clustercorp Rocks+ makes ongoing management easy. Cluster and cloud administrators manage the entire cluster from the head node. If a node needs an update, Rocks+ pings the head node, and automatically reprovisions the compute or cloud node to a known-good state. Newly added nodes are also configured automatically—with a single command—without the need for complex administrator assistance.

    Succeed - Choosing Rocks+ solutions from one of our hardware partners ensures that hardware and software components work together seamlessly, delivering high quality and a lower total cost of ownership over your data center's lifetime.
